Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to hire a personal injury attorney?

The Pryor Law Firm handles personal injury cases on a contingency fee basis. This means you do not pay attorney fees upfront. We only receive a fee if we recover compensation on your behalf through a settlement or verdict.

What compensation may be available after an accident?

Depending on the circumstances of your case, you may be able to recover compensation for medical expenses, lost income, reduced earning capacity, pain and suffering, property damage, and other accident-related losses. The value of a claim depends on the severity of the injuries and the specific facts involved.

How long do I have to file a personal injury lawsuit in New York?

In most cases, New York gives injured individuals three years from the date of an accident to file a personal injury lawsuit. However, certain exceptions may apply, and claims against government entities often have much shorter notice and filing deadlines. Because missing a deadline can affect your ability to recover compensation, it is important to speak with an attorney as soon as possible after an injury.

What should I do after an accident in New York?

Seek medical attention as soon as possible, even if your injuries do not seem serious at first. Report the accident when appropriate, preserve any available evidence, and avoid discussing the incident with insurance companies before understanding your legal rights. Consulting an attorney early can help protect your claim.
